Heterocyclic compounds as pesticides

ABSTRACT

The present application relates to the use of heterocyclic compounds, some of which are known, for controlling animal pests, including arthropods and in particular insects, furthermore to novel heterocyclic compounds and to processes for their preparation.

This application is a divisional of U.S. application Ser. No. 13/054,401, 371(c) date of May 17, 2011, which is a National Stage of international application number PCT/EP2009/004832, filed on Jul. 4, 2009, which claims priority to EP Application No. 08012898.6, filed Jul. 17, 2008. The disclosures of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.

The present application relates to the use of heterocyclic compounds, some of which are known, for controlling animal pests including arthropods and in particular insects, furthermore to novel heterocyclic compounds and to processes for their preparation.

Certain thiazolyl compounds are already known; however, a use for controlling animal pests has hitherto not been described (cf. WO 2003/015776).

Also known are thiadiazole compounds. CH 411 906 and EP 0 288 432 A1 describe the use of such compounds as optical brighteners. CH 409 511 discloses thiadiazoles suitable for controlling nematodes. DE 3641184 describes certain phenyl-substituted thiadiazoles for controlling pests.

WO 1998/056785 and WO 1996/032938 disclose pyrazole compounds, for which pharmaceutical applications are stated.

Modern crop protection agents have to satisfy many demands, for example with respect to efficacy, persistence and spectrum of their action and possible use. Questions of toxicity, the combinability with other active compounds or formulation auxiliaries play a role, as well as the question of the expense that the synthesis of an active compound requires. Furthermore, resistances may occur. For all these reasons, the search for novel crop protection agents cannot be considered as having been concluded, and there is a constant need for novel compounds having properties which, compared to the known compounds, are improved at least in respect of individual aspects.

It was an object of the present invention to provide compounds which widen the spectrum of the pesticides under various aspects.

This object and further objects not explicitly mentioned which can be derived or deduced from the context discussed here are, in part, achieved by novel compounds of the formula (I),

By way of example and in a complementary manner, the preparation of compounds of the formula (I) is illustrated in the formula Schemes below. Reference may also be made here to the Preparation Examples. In the schemes, the radical G¹ is also referred to as G₁.

In the formula Schemes below, the radical R may have different meanings; however, if nothing else is indicated, these meanings can be derived from the respective context.

The preparation of compounds of the formula (II) where R¹=alkyl is carried out using methods known in principle, starting with thioamides of the formula (III) by reaction with alpha-halocarbonyl compounds; for example analogously to Helvetica Chimica Acta 1945, 820 and DE 2221647. Compounds where R¹ ═H can be synthesized using known methods, for example analogously to Helvetica Chimica Acta 1957, 554, but preferably as described in Preparation Example 5. Compounds of the formula (IV) can be obtained from the compounds of the formula (II) by a reaction with bromine in a diluent such as dichloromethane. The boronic acids of the formula (VI) can be obtained either by deprotonation of the compounds of the formula (II) with a strong base such as LDA (lithium diisopropylamide) or by metallation of the bromides (IV), subsequent reaction with a boronic ester (R=alkyl), followed by hydrolysis. The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention are, according to Formula Scheme 1, obtained either from the boronic acids of the formula (VI) by Suzuki reaction or directly from the thiazoles of the formula (II) by Heck reaction by transition metal-mediated coupling in the presence of complexing ligands (for example PR₃, R=, for example, o-tolyl) and an auxiliary base in a diluent such as, for example, palladium(II) acetate, tri-o-tolylphosphine, potassium carbonate and DMF. The bromrides of the formula (V) are known or can be obtained by methods known in principle. The preparation of the bromide of the formula (V) where R=2-pyrimidyl is described, for example, in Tetrahedron Letters, 2000, 1653; an improved preparation process results by taking into account the observations described in Tetrahedron Letters 1996, 2537, see Preparation Example 5.

The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention where G³=N-attached pyrazole can be prepared from the bromides of the formula (IV) by transition metal-mediated reaction with pyrazoles in the presence of an auxiliary base in a diluent such as, for example, copper(I) iodide, potassium carbonate and DMF, see Journal of Organic Chemistry 2004, 5578. The appropriate pyrazoles are known or can be prepared by methods known in principle, for example analogously to Chemische Berichte, 125, 3, 1992, Chemical Communications, 24, 1994, 2751, Tetrahedron Letters, 1999, 4779.

The preparation of the compounds of the formula (VII) where R¹=alkyl is carried out by reacting the thioamides of the formula (III) with alpha-halocarbonyl compounds to give the acetyl compounds of the formula (VII), according to DE2221647. The compounds of the formula (VII) in which R¹ represents hydrogen can be prepared based on the methods described in Helvetica Chimica Acta 1944, 1432-1436. The chloroformyl ester used in this reference can be prepared as described in Chemische Berichte, 1910, 3528-3533. However, preferably, the sodium salt, which can be prepared analogously to the potassium salt described in this reference, of the chloroformyl ester is used directly for the reaction with a thioamide of the formula (III), without addition of a base, giving the esters of the formula (IX). Using the standard methods indicated in Reaction Scheme 3, cf. DE 2221647, the ester of the formula (IX) can be converted initially into the acid of the formula (X) and then into the acid chloride of the formula (XI). Further reaction with O,N-dimethylhydroxylamine in a diluent such as, for example, dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran and in the presence of a base such as, for example, triethylamine or diisopropylethylamine gives compounds of the formula (XII) which can be converted, by reaction with a methyl metal compound, such as methylmagnesium bromide, into the ketone of the formula (VII). By reacting the compounds of the formula (VII) with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal, the enaminones of the formula (VIII) are obtained, see Heterocycles, 43, 1, 1996, 221 and Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry 24, 1987, 837, see also Preparation Example 1. By reaction with a hydroxyamidine in the presence of an auxiliary base such as triethylamine in a diluent such as dioxane, the oxadiazoles of the formula (I) according to the invention can be obtained from the acid chloride of the formula (XI).

By reaction with hydrazine hydrate in a diluent such as ethanol, the enaminones of the formula (VIII) give the NH-pyrazoles of the formula (I). By reaction with an alkylating or (het-)arylating agent and an auxiliary base such as sodium hydride in a diluent such as DMF, these pyrazoles can be converted into the N-substituted pyrazoles of the formula (I) according to the invention. By reacting the enaminones of the formula (VIII) with substituted hydrazines, it is likewise possible to obtain the N-substituted pyrazoles of the formula (I). The substituted hydrazines required are known or can be prepared by methods known in principle, see, for example, Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2005, 141. The N-substituted pyrazoles of the formula (I) according to the invention are formed in the isomeric forms isomer 1 and isomer 2, the preferred route to isomer 1 being via the NH-pyrazoles of the formula (I). By reacting the enaminones of the formula (VIII) in the presence of an auxiliary base such as sodium ethoxide in a diluent such as ethanol with amidines, the pyrimidines of the formula (I) according to the invention can be obtained of theory required amidines are known or can be prepared by methods known in principle, see also Preparation Example 1.

According to Formula Scheme 5 (see also Preparation Example 7), the compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention are obtained by initially reacting 2-hydrazinoethanol with an alkylating or (het-)arylating agent R—X to give compounds of the formula (XIV); a reaction of this type is described in Khim. Geterosikl. Soedin 1990, 8, 1065. From these compounds, it is possible to obtain, with acids of the formula (X) and with the aid of an activating agent such as BOP-Cl in the presence of an auxiliary base such as triethylamine in a diluent such as DMF, the hydrazides of the formula (XV) which, for example by a Mitsunobu reaction, as described in Heterocycles 37, 3, 1994, 1645, can be converted into the compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention.

The thiadiazoles of the formula (I) according to the invention according to Formula Scheme 6 are obtained by reacting nicotinic acid hydrazides of the formula (XVI) with, for example, carbonyl chlorides to give compounds of the formula (XVII), followed by cyclization in the presence of a sulphurizing agent such as Lawessons reagent without diluent (cf. Youji Huaxue (2004), 24(5), 502) or in a diluent such as toluene or anisole. Hydrazides of the formula (XVI) have been described, for example in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 32, 3, 1989, 583-593, and can be obtained by hydrazinolysis of the corresponding carboxylic esters.

Alternatively to the process described in Formula Scheme 6, thiadiazoles of the formula (I) according to the invention can also be obtained by a Heck reaction analogously to the process described in Formula Scheme (I), see Preparation Example 10. The required thiadiazoles of the formula (XIX) can be obtained from nicotinic acid hydrazides of the formula (XVI) by reaction with formic acid analogously to Bull. Soc. Chim. Belg. Vol. 106, No 2, 1997, 109, giving the formylhydrazides of the formula (XVIII), and subsequent reaction with a sulphurizing agent such as Lawessons reagent in a diluent such as toluene or anisole, see Journal of Indian Chemistry 8, 1970, 509.

Formula Scheme 8 describes the preparation of ketones of the formula (XXII), see also Preparation Example 9. The hydrazide of the formula (XVI) is converted in the presence of a base such as, for example, triethylamine in a diluent such as, for example, dimethylformamide (DMF) with ethyl oxalyl chloride into the diacylhydrazine compound of the formula (XX), which then reacts with a sulphurizing agent such as, for example, Lawessons reagent to give the thiadiazole of the formula (XXI), see Liquid Crystals Today, Volume 14, 1, 2005, 15-18. By reaction with a metal methyl compound such as methyl lithium, the ketone (XXII) can be obtained from the ester (XXI), see Journal of Organic Chemistry 1997, 4774.

For Formula Scheme 9, see also Preparation Example 9. By reacting the ketone of the formula (XXII) with DMF acetal, the enaminones of the formula (XXIII) are obtained analogously to Formula Scheme 3. According to the process described in Formula Scheme 4, the enaminone of the formula (XXIII) gives either, by reaction with hydrazine hydrate, the NH-pyrazoles of the formula (I) which can be converted further into the N-substituted pyrazoles of the formula (I), or directly the N-substituted pyrazoles of the formula (I) by reaction with substituted hydrazine. The compounds of the formula (I) are formed in the isomeric forms isomer 1 and isomer 2, the preferred route to isomer 1 being via NH-pyrazoles of the formula (I). By reacting the enaminone of the formula (XXIII) with amidines, it is possible to obtain the pyrimidines of the formula (I) according to the invention.

For Formula Scheme 10, see also Synthesis Example 11. The acetyl compound of the formula (XXV) gives, by reaction with oxalic ester in the presence of a base such as sodium ethoxide in a diluent such as toluene or ethanol (cf. Journal of the American Chemical Society 1948, 4265), the ester of the formula (XXVI), by reaction with hydrazines, this is converted into the pyrazole of the formula (XXVII). For this and the reaction steps that follow, see also Preparation Example 11. The pyrazole of the formula (XXVII) is formed in the isomeric forms isomer 1 and isomer 2. From the isomer 1 of the pyrazole of the formula (XXVII), the acid of the formula (XXVIII) is prepared using an alkali metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide in a diluent such as ethanol/water. In accordance with the process described in Formula Scheme 3, this affords the amide of the formula (XXIX) and the ketone of the formula (XXX).

For Formula Scheme 11, see also Preparation Example 11. The preparation of the compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention corresponds to the process described in Formula Schemes 3 and 4. By reacting the ketone of the formula (XXX) with DMF acetal, the enaminone of the formula (XXXI) is obtained. From these compounds, the pyrimidines of the formula (I) according to the invention can be obtained by reaction with amidines. By reaction with hydrazine, the NH-pyrazole of the formula (I) is obtained, and from this compound the N-substituted pyrazole of the formula (I) which is formed in the isomeric forms isomer 1 and isomer 2. The preferred route to the N-substituted pyrazoles of the formula (I) according to the invention is via the N-pyrazole of the formula (I).

The active compounds according to the invention, in combination with good plant tolerance and favourable toxicity to warm-blooded animals and being tolerated well by the environment, are suitable for protecting plants and plant organs, for increasing the harvest yields, for improving the quality of the harvested material and for controlling animal pests, in particular insects, arachnids, helminths, nematodes and molluscs, which are encountered in agriculture, in horticulture, in animal husbandry, in forests, in gardens and leisure facilities, in the protection of stored products and of materials, and in the hygiene sector. They may be preferably employed as plant protection agents. They are active against normally sensitive and resistant species and against all or some stages of development.

If appropriate, they can also be employed as intermediates or precursors for the synthesis of other active compounds.

The active compounds can be converted to the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, wettable powders, water- and oil-based suspensions, powders, dusts, pastes, soluble powders, soluble granules, granules for broadcasting, suspension-emulsion concentrates, natural materials impregnated with active compound, synthetic materials impregnated with active compound, fertilizers and microencapsulations in polymeric substances.

These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is liquid solvents and/or solid carriers, optionally with the use of surfactants, that is emulsifiers and/or dispersants and/or foam-formers. The formulations are prepared either in suitable plants or else before or during the application.

Suitable for use as auxiliaries are substances which are suitable for imparting to the composition itself and/or to preparations derived therefrom (for example spray liquors, seed dressings) particular properties such as certain technical properties and/or also particular biological properties. Typical suitable auxiliaries are: extenders, solvents and carriers.

Suitable extenders are, for example, water, polar and nonpolar organic chemical liquids, for example from the classes of the aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons (such as paraffins, alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, chlorobenzenes), the alcohols and polyols (which, if appropriate, may also be substituted, etherified and/or esterified), the ketones (such as acetone, cyclohexanone), esters (including fats and oils) and (poly)ethers, the unsubstituted and substituted amines, amides, lactams (such as N-alkylpyrrolidones) and lactones, the sulphones and sulphoxides (such as dimethyl sulphoxide).

If the extender used is water, it is also possible to employ, for example, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents. Essentially, suitable liquid solvents are: aromatics such as xylene, toluene or alkylnaphthalenes, chlorinated aromatics and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example petroleum fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols such as butanol or glycol and also their ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents such as dimethyl sulphoxide, and also water.

Suitable solid carriers are:

for example, ammonium salts and ground natural minerals such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals, such as finely divided silica, alumina and silicates; suitable solid carriers for granules are: for example, crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite and dolomite, and also synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and granules of organic material such as paper, sawdust, coconut shells, maize cobs and tobacco stalks; suitable emulsifiers and/or foam-formers are: for example, nonionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulphonates, alkyl sulphates, arylsulphonates and also protein hydrolysates; suitable dispersants are nonionic and/or ionic substances, for example from the classes of the alcohol-POE- and/or -POP-ethers, acid and/or POP-POE esters, alkyl aryl and/or POP-POE ethers, fat- and/or POP-POE adducts, POE- and/or POP-polyol derivatives, POE- and/or POP-sorbitan- or -sugar adducts, alkyl or aryl sulphates, alkyl- or arylsulphonates and alkyl or aryl phosphates or the corresponding PO-ether adducts. Furthermore, suitable oligo- or polymers, for example those derived from vinylic monomers, from acrylic acid, from EO and/or PO alone or in combination with, for example, (poly)alcohols or (poly)amines. It is also possible to employ lignin and its sulphonic acid derivatives, unmodified and modified celluloses, aromatic and/or aliphatic sulphonic acids and their adducts with formaldehyde.

Tackifiers such as carboxymethylcellulose, natural and synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or lattices, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetate, as well as natural phospholipids such as cephalins and lecithins, and synthetic phospholipids, can be used in the formulations.

It is possible to use colorants such as inorganic pigments, for example iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussian Blue, and organic dyestuffs, such as alizarin dyestuffs, azo dyestuffs and metal phthalocyanine dyestuffs, and trace nutrients such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.

Other possible additives are perfumes, mineral or vegetable, optionally modified oils, waxes and nutrients (including trace nutrients), such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.

Stabilizers, such as low-temperature stabilizers, preservatives, antioxidants, light stabilizers or other agents which improve chemical and/or physical stability may also be present.

The formulations generally comprise between 0.01 and 98% by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.

The active compound according to the invention can be used in its commercially available formulations and in the use forms, prepared from these formulations, as a mixture with other active compounds, such as insecticides, attractants, sterilizing agents, bactericides, acaricides, nematicides, fungicides, growth-regulating substances, herbicides, safeners, fertilizers or semiochemicals.

A mixture with other known active compounds, such as herbicides, fertilizers, growth regulators, safeners, semiochemicals, or else with agents for improving the plant properties, is also possible.

When used as insecticides, the active compounds according to the invention can furthermore be present in their commercially available formulations and in the use forms, prepared from these formulations, as a mixture with synergists. Synergists are compounds which increase the action of the active compounds, without it being necessary for the synergistic agent added to be active itself.

When used as insecticides, the active compounds according to the invention can furthermore be present in their commercially available formulations and in the use forms, prepared from these formulations, as mixtures with inhibitors which reduce degradation of the active compound after use in the environment of the plant, on the surface of parts of plants or in plant tissues.

The active compound content of the use forms prepared from the commercially available formulations can vary within wide limits. The active compound concentration of the use forms can be from 0.00000001 to 95% by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.00001 and 1% by weight.

The compounds are employed in a customary manner appropriate for the use forms.

All plants and plant parts can be treated in accordance with the invention. Plants are to be understood as meaning in the present context all plants and plant populations such as desired and undesired wild plants or crop plants (including naturally occurring crop plants). Crop plants can be plants which can be obtained by conventional plant breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and genetic engineering methods or by combinations of these methods, including the transgenic plants and including the plant cultivars protectable or not protectable by plant breeders' rights. Plant parts are to be understood as meaning all parts and organs of plants above and below the ground, such as shoot, leaf, flower and root, examples which may be mentioned being leaves, needles, stalks, stems, flowers, fruit bodies, fruits, seeds, roots, tubers and rhizomes. The plant parts also include harvested material, and vegetative and generative propagation material, for example cuttings, tubers, rhizomes, offshoots and seeds.

Treatment according to the invention of the plants and plant parts with the active compounds is carried out directly or by allowing the compounds to act on their surroundings, habitat or storage space by the customary treatment methods, for example by immersion, spraying, evaporation, fogging, scattering, painting on, injecting and, in the case of propagation material, in particular in the case of seeds, also by applying one or more coats.

As already mentioned above, it is possible to treat all plants and their parts according to the invention. In a preferred embodiment, wild plant species and plant cultivars, or those obtained by conventional biological breeding methods, such as crossing or protoplast fusion, and parts thereof, are treated. In a further preferred embodiment, transgenic plants and plant cultivars obtained by genetic engineering methods, if appropriate in combination with conventional methods (Genetically Modified Organisms), and parts thereof are treateof theorye terms “parts”, “parts of plants” and “plant parts” have been explained above.

Particularly preferably, plants of the plant cultivars which are in each case commercially available or in use are treated according to the invention. Plant cultivars are to be understood as meaning plants having novel properties (“traits”) which have been obtained by conventional breeding, by mutagenesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. These can be cultivars, bio- or genotypes.

Depending on the plant species or plant cultivars, their location and growth conditions (soils, climate, vegetation period, diet), the treatment according to the invention may also result in superadditive (“synergistic”) effects. Thus, for example, reduced application rates and/or a widening of the activity spectrum and/or an increase in the activity of the substances and compositions which can be used according to the invention, better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to water or soil salt content, increased flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated maturation, higher harvest yields, higher quality and/or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products, better storage stability and/or processability of the harvested products are possible, which exceed the effects which were actually to be expected.

The transgenic plants or plant cultivars (obtained by genetic engineering) which are preferably to be treated according to the invention include all plants which, by virtue of the genetic modification, received genetic material which imparts particularly advantageous, useful traits to these plants. Examples of such traits are better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to water or soil salt content, increased flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated maturation, higher harvest yields, higher quality and/or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products, better storage stability and/or processability of the harvested products. Further and particularly emphasized examples of such traits are a better defence of the plants against animal and microbial pests, such as against insects, mites, phytopathogenic fungi, bacteria and/or viruses, and also increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidally active compounds. Examples of transgenic plants which may be mentioned are the important crop plants, such as cereals (wheat, rice), maize, soya beans, potatoes, sugar beet, tomatoes, peas and other vegetable varieties, cotton, tobacco, oilseed rape and also fruit plants (with the fruits apples, pears, citrus fruits and grapes), and particular emphasis is given to maize, soya beans, potatoes, cotton, tobacco and oilseed rape. Traits that are emphasized in particular are increased defence of the plants against insects, arachnids, nematodes and slugs and snails by virtue of toxins formed in the plants, in particular those formed in the plants by the genetic material from Bacillus thuringiensis (for example by the genes CryIA(a), CryIA(b), CryIA(c), CryIIA, CryIIIA, CryIIIB2, Cry9c, Cry2Ab, Cry3Bb and CryIF and also combinations thereof) (referred to hereinbelow as “Bt plants”). Traits that are also particularly emphasized are the increased defence of the plants against fungi, bacteria and viruses by systemic acquired resistance (SAR), systemin, phytoalexins, elicitors and resistance genes and correspondingly expressed proteins and toxins. Traits that are furthermore particularly emphasized are the increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidally active compounds, for example imidazolinones, sulphonylureas, glyphosate or phosphinotricin (for example the “PAT” gene). The genes which impart the desired traits in question can also be present in combination with one another in the transgenic plants. Examples of “Bt plants” which may be mentioned are maize varieties, cotton varieties, soya bean varieties and potato varieties which are sold under the trade names YIELD GARD® (for example maize, cotton, soya beans), KnockOut® (for example maize), StarLink® (for example maize), Bollgard® (cotton), Nucotn® (cotton) and NewLeaf® (potato). Examples of herbicide-tolerant plants which may be mentioned are maize varieties, cotton varieties and soya bean varieties which are sold under the trade names Roundup Ready® (tolerance to glyphosate, for example maize, cotton, soya beans), Liberty Link® (tolerance to phosphinotricin, for example oilseed rape), IMI® (tolerance to imidazolinones) and STS® (tolerance to sulphonylureas, for example maize). Herbicide-resistant plants (plants bred in a conventional manner for herbicide tolerance) which may be mentioned include the varieties sold under the name Clearfield® (for example maize). Of course, these statements also apply to plant cultivars having these genetic traits or genetic traits still to be developed, which plant cultivars will be developed and/or marketed in the future.

The plants listed can be treated according to the invention in a particularly advantageous manner with the compounds of the general formula (I) and/or the active compound mixtures according to the invention. The preferred ranges stated above for the active compounds or mixtures also apply to the treatment of these plants. Particular emphasis is given to the treatment of plants with the compounds or mixtures specifically mentioned in the present text.

1) Description of the method for determining the logP values (formic acid method)

The logP values given in the table were determined in accordance with EEC Directive 79/831 Annex V.A8 by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) on a reversed-phase column (C18). Temperature: 55° C.

Mobile phases for the determination in the acidic range (pH 3.4):

Mobile phase A: Acetonitrile+1 ml of formic acid/litre. Mobile phase B: water+0.9 ml of formic acid/litre.

Gradient: from 10% mobile phase A/90% mobile phase B to 95% mobile phase A/5% mobile phase B in 4.25 min.

Calibration was carried out using unbranched alkan-2-ones (having 3 to 16 carbon atoms) with known logP values (determination of the logP values by the retention times using linear interpolation between two successive alkanones).
